Raul Gorrín: Secure understanding with others: empathic communication

(Raul Gorrín) Silence is never a solution to problems. The science of human relationships, their pathologies and everything that contributes to improve them. It is a golden rule: to communicate is fundamental.

Whether in the family, emotional life or at work, raising concerns, discomfort or disagreements, is vital.

One must communicate and trust that this route would be best way to solve disagreements.

Surge in this that to connect is a very important, empathic communication. Remember that empathy understand the cognitive ability to perceive what another being can feel.

How to communicate empathetically?

Type the message, a technique to not leave anything to chance or, worse, forgotten. Write a draft of what you want to communicate, sort the various aspects of it as their priority. (Raul Gorrín)

Avoid phrases that might hurt others or constitute an attack on their values and principles, or whether an indictment.

Clearly state their views on the matter.

Do not waste time exposing issues that are not related to the problem.

When writing beforehand what reason can expose more calmly and avoid insults or derogatory or hurtful phrases.

It will, therefore, avoiding the noise in the communication.

And it is that the "noise" far from clear, only cloud the picture and avoid possible solutions. (Raul Gorrín)

distracting elements like sending text messages while the exposure is made, choose environments with little privacy, trying to use email as a way to propose solutions only contribute to roil empathic communication to be face to face.

Achieving send messages without noise favors empathic communication and hence understanding and solution, because apart from transmitting the rational aspects may also provide emotional.

This applies at home and in the company. Chat, communicating with others implies a proactive attitude, therefore, forget cell phones, Tablet, e-mail, computer or TV and focus on serving its counterpart. (Raul Gorrín)

Communication in no way should cause fear, but should become an ally that allows understanding, unity, harmony and unity.

Raul Gorrín: Using Email healthfully

(Raul Gorrín) Organizations need to activate some healthy practices aimed at reducing psychosocial risks in the personnel working for the company. One of these practices is the use of email, for which we must turn our attention and fine-tune the look.

While e-mail has been a great contribution that has led to the revitalization of many errands and allowed communication to flow in organizations more expeditiously, too often it has been a tool that has gotten out of control.

The e-mail, as it is also known, has sometimes against the interests of companies or enterprises, greatly conditioning the productivity of human resources, has come to degrade the work environment. Employees are carried away by supposed urgency of the message and stopped working proactively with email.

Processing and reading emails consume a large percentage of the working day. It's just a matter of counting the number of messages sent and received daily and multiply this to set the monthly and annual time used in this case. Some have come to ensure that such action in a year can mean the equivalent of 75 full working days.

In addition, studies have determined that 70 percent of all utilities professionals know that their mail offers, so wasted many functions and therefore do not use it productively. Also it has reached the point of replacing phone calls with emails, thereby solving a minor event is delayed or complicated greatly when a simple phone conversation with her could solve. Not to mention the face to face negotiations, which have been diminished.

Also they have bureaucratized many procedures that could be solved simply and use of this tool has only come to complicate them by requiring unnecessary requirements, or involving third parties when they are included through a copy sent on an errand in which they had nothing or nothing to contribute.

It may seem at first glance a small matter, but it is not. (Raul Gorrín)

Does your organization regulate the use of email? Are there guidelines for its use or is left to the "good God" regarding the matter?

Catch pending, as the delay in many of his efforts could have on the use of email the reason for it.

Building healthy organizations goes through the review of all factors, however insignificant at first glance appear. (Raul Gorrín)

Which involves serving as a salesman Life Insurance

"Life insurance is an asset that will provide financial compensation upon the death of the designated beneficiaries. The compensation paid by the insurance company term will not be affected by market conditions. While this is not a new idea, can be an incentive for potential customers," said Raul Gorrín, president of Seguros La Vitalicia.

For those who serve as mediators life insurance "should stop seeing as vendors," says Raul Gorrín.

In his opinion he believes that this is one of the reasons that makes it difficult to get potential customers.

"What big sellers (from other fields) have been made to overcome this obstacle has been formed through consultative selling, become partners customer thus offering a high level of service that fosters satisfaction, build loyalty and establishes relationships beneficial and lasting in time, "says Gorrín.

For Raul Gorrín, success in the insurance sector as Life Insurance salesman is to "facilitate", clearing the way for potential customers and point out what is most important to them.

"We all think about our lives and how we would like progress. But more often it is to find that we have the answers about what it takes to make this happen, "says Raul Gorrín.

Raúl Gorrín: Humanist Entrepreneur

Humanist entrepreneurs pave avenues of opportunity for those who would, otherwise, be locked into lives without hope. Humanist entrepreneurship has gained renewed currency in a world ever more divided between haves and the have-nots. They distinguish themselves from other social venture players by doing. They are relentlessly focused on impact.

Humanist entrepreneur are:

Ambitious: Humanist entrepreneurs tackle major social issues, from increasing the college enrollment rate of low-income students to fighting poverty. They operate in all kinds of organizations: innovative nonprofits, social-purpose, and hybrid organizations that mix elements of nonprofit and for-profit organizations.

Mission driven: Generating social value —not wealth—is the central criterion of a successful humanist entrepreneur. While wealth creation may be part of the process, it is not an end in itself. Promoting systemic social change is the real objective.

Strategic: Like business entrepreneurs, humanish entrepreneurs see and act upon what others miss: opportunities to improve systems, create solutions and invent new approaches that create social value. And like the best business entrepreneurs, humanist entrepreneurs are intensely focused and hard-driving in their pursuit of a social vision.

Resourceful: Because social entrepreneurs operate within a social context rather than the business world, they have limited access to capital and traditional market support systems.

Results oriented: Humanist entrepreneurs are driven to produce measurable returns. These results transform existing realities, open up new pathways for the marginalized and disadvantaged, and unlock society’s potential to effect social change.

Raúl Gorrín: Humanist entrepreneurs and the people

When we talk about humanism in business most people don't know that entrepreneurship is changing in a positive way. Humanist entrepreneurs are individuals with innovative solutions to people’s most pressing social problems. They are ambitious and persistent, tackling major social issues and offering new ideas for wide-scale change.

Rather than leaving societal needs to the government or business sectors, humanist entrepreneurs find what is not working and solve the problem by changing the system, spreading the solution, and persuading entire societies to move in different directions.

Humanist entrepreneurs often seem to be possessed by their ideas, committing their lives to changing the direction of their field. They are visionaries, but also realists, and are ultimately concerned with the practical implementation of their vision above all else.

Humanist entrepreneurs present user-friendly, understandable, and ethical ideas that engage widespread support in order to maximize the number of people that will stand up, seize their idea, and implement it. Leading humanist entrepreneurs are mass recruiters of local changemakers— role models proving that people who channel their ideas into action can do almost anything.

Raúl Gorrín: How to increase Productivity

Looking for the best way to accomplish the productivity and effectiveness?. One way that successful managers keep their workers motivated is by utilizing effective goal-setting techniques. When employees are working toward something specific, be it the end of a project or a promotion/raise, they tend to work harder than they do when their output is monotonous. Here are a few tips on how to make small changes to the office setting, and to managerial practises – changes that can keep your employees goal-oriented and focused on the future.

Have bi-monthly meetings

Many companies have meetings with individual employees and managers scheduled every six months. Some even wait to do them once per year, or less often. However, by having these meetings every other month, you can keep your employees from feeling complacent in their work. When you’ve been working at a company for years, it’s easy to settle into a groove and allow your motivation to falter. Yet, if managers use these meetings to stress the importance of current assignments, and how employees may benefit from their success, it may be enough to get the team working harder than ever before. By showing employees what they have to gain from working hard, you’ll influence them to set their own goals, and that will increase their efficiency and productivity on a day-to-day basis.

Keep them focused on their career path

The career track at your company is something you should be transparent about, if possible. By keeping employees informed about opportunities for advancement – like the higher-up job positions available at your firm, the salaries they offer and the responsibilities they confer – you’ll be able to illustrate to your team the benefits that are obtained by those who excel. This will help to show them that success for your business directly breeds success for them personally, and that will help to get them striving toward specific goals. By allowing them to do so, you’ll have your team working with zeal once again.

Reign in focus by eliminating unnecessary tasks

Another way to help your employees stay focused is to eliminate as many time-consuming, redundant and unnecessary tasks as possible. At insurance organizations, many employees often find themselves chasing down integral pieces of information for hours on end, for example. By finding offshore, consultative partners who could help workers streamline and delegate this type of work, managers would be giving their employees a way to better focus on the tasks that more directly require their industry expertise.

An unfocused employee is often a stressed employee, and a stressed employee can never produce at the same level as one who’s feeling confident and focused about their professional future. So whenever managers see an opportunity to give their employees a chance to focus harder on their goals, it becomes necessary to make the most of that chance. by resources chief B. Hernandez
